You have to write a fanfic that incorporates ideas or symbolism inspired by your five most recent non-face emojis. Are you able to write one that you would consider good?
Hell yes! This is gonna be great!
It’ll be difficult, but I think I can make it at least readable
Probably not, but I’ll try for the giggles
Nope. No way. Not even trying.
I don’t write / other
Do you listen to anything while you write?
Nope, nothing
Yes, TV/Youtube videos/Etc
Yes, relaxing sounds like rain or white noise
Yes, music
Yes, something else
I’m not a writer
Some other answer that doesn’t fit into any of these categories
Writers: you get to pick a fruit off a magic tree that offers one of these free boons. What do you pick?
Time pauses when you get in the writing flow for as long as you’re in the flow
You always have a good pen full of ink on hand
You always have solid enough WiFi access to use your writing software
You get paid 5 cents for every sincere word of creative writing you do
You never get writer’s block ever again
Your chores magically do themselves whenever you’re making real writing progress
Writing sessions of 30+ minutes slowly cure you of any physical pain or illness
I would contrarily refuse all of these
See results / I don’t write (sorry the magic tree only likes writers)

do you give your OCs astrological signs?
yes and it's important and reflects on their characterization
yes, but just for fun it's not critical to their character
I choose their birthday but don't care about their sign
I prefer a different typology (Chinese calendar, ENFJ, blood type, etc)
nope
results / I wanna discuss !
Tell me your OCs signs!!!!!!
niche subgenre readers of tumblr, arise!!! A Writer Calls for Aid,
i am more-than-idly percolating on how to pitch my book, which i intended to be upper YA (17yo protag, written backward toward 17yo me). liminal spaces, not quite SF or fantasy or horror, little bit of all of the above. good, fine, phenomenal.
however, because of Who I Am As A Person, it's a fucking weird book, by which i actually mean New Weird, the hazy but somewhat formalized genre (think VanderMeer, think Mieville, think WtNV). this is, unfortunately, THE most accurate genre designation i can slap on the manuscript, and--as far as i can tell--it is not a thriving YA subgenre, by which i mean: i'm afraid it doesn't exist At All, in YA spaces lmao.
i know that both VanderMeer and Mieville have written books for younger audiences, but!: as i set about drafting my pitch, i am wondering if there are other New Weird books for teens that i have overlooked. this is where i need You, beloved fellow denizen of Our Spectacular Hellsite. we'll do this like a poll, because i know where i am
have you heard of the New Weird genre, and do you have YA examples for me?
yes to both! i'm leaving examples in the notes
i've heard of it but have no YA examples
i hadn't heard of it, but now that i've read the wiki link, i have YA examples
i have never heard of this and have nothing for you. good luck out there though.
